As a writer, naturalist, and homeschooling parent, Magi Nams had dreamed of travelling with her family to far-away countries to hike through landscapes inhabited by exotic animals and plants. In the summer of 2000, her dream came true when she, her scientist husband, and two sons left their home in Canada to spend ten months in New Zealand. This Dark Sheltering Forest is the second volume of Nams's trilogy, Cry of the Kiwi: A Family's New Zealand Adventure, a captivating chronicle of her family's travel dream fulfilled in a land of volcanoes, giant trees, and endangered flightless birds. Amid downpours and summer heat, the Nams - Magi, Vilis, Dainis, and Janis - drive quads over muddy, pitted tracks on North Island's Central Volcanic Plateau, dodging danger as they trap stoats, the subject of Vilis's scientific research. Long hours in the outdoors introduce Dainis and Janis to the challenges of field research, and the entire family to the lush, cluttered beauty of a New Zealand rainforest. During time off, the family treks over an active volcano, snorkels among electric-blue fishes, and spots glow-worms in caves. They walk among New Zealand's most endangered birds, gaze in awe at some of the largest trees on earth, and explore a gaudy wonderland that rests on the fiery guts of the earth. Along the way, Nams reflects on the character revelations that spring from working together as a family, and the mpact of invasive species on the ecology of New Zealand's fragile native ecosystems.
